Indulge in exquisite white-sand delights and delicious regional cuisine during this voyage to the Lesser Antilles’ Windward Islands, a journey rich in exclusive excursions seldom experienced by others. Trek through a private nature reserve inhabited by lyrical thrushes, curious macaws, and radiant tropical birds to Mount Pimard’s summit views above Pigeon Island. Sample local St. Lucian bites and Trinidadian culinary delights during a walking food tour at Rodney Bay. Snorkel past sea turtles, vibrant coral outcroppings, and curious reef fish off St. Vincent’s. Sail beyond typical Grenadines tourist crowds to little-known, laid-back villages to browse open-stall markets for succulent tropical fruit treats, or simply relax beneath a shady canopy with a chilled rum punch. Sip unique nutmeg liquors prior to a delicious tour of a Grenada rum distillery on St. George’s. Dive deep during a warm-water guided tour of reefs and lost wreckage off Bequia’s emerald coastline.
The Essence of Small Ship Sailing
The Wind Spirit is a sleek, 4-masted sailing yacht accommodating 148 guests. With four decks and a gross tonnage of 5,736, Wind Spirit feels like your own private small ship.
Wind Spirit features wide open, teak decks—quite unusual for small ships. Guests will find hidden nooks for private moments giving them a feeling of being on their own private veranda.
All staterooms have ocean views, queen beds, flat-screen TV with DVD player, and Bose SoundDock speakers for Apple iPods. The Owner’s Suite includes a sitting area.
Wind Spirit offers two primary dining venues. Amphora restaurant offers gourmet, course-by-course cuisine in the evenings and Veranda restaurant offers casual buffet and full-service dining for breakfast and lunch. All dining is open seating. And, for dining under the stars, make a reservation for Candles which features steaks and skewers.
Wind Spirit amenities include: WindSpa, Watersports Platform, Lounge, Library, Pool, and Hot Tub.
NO ONE ELSE GOES SO FAR TO GET TRAVELERS SO CLOSE …
You’re closer to secluded coves, tiny villages, misty fjords. To ancient ruins, medieval alleyways, quaint marinas. To unspoiled beaches, unfamiliar cultures, undiscovered atolls. To enlivening your curiosity and awakening your sense of wonder. You’re closer than ever to the kind of authentic and unforgettable experiences that you travel to find in the first place. You’re about to board Windstar. And you’re closer to all the places that larger ships can’t reach.
SEE A WORLD FEW WILL EVER SEE …
Welcome to a world of understated elegance and uncommon beauty. A world that leaves crowds and commonplace behind to find unique ports of call, and local, exotic cultures that are at once fascinating and wondrous. A world that’s equal parts intimate, indulgent and inspiring. Where the allure and beauty and magic of the places you sail to is equaled only by the ship that takes you there.
